End of The Night

(With Sesshomaru)

I watched as her body was turned away from me. It definitely wasn't fair. She was just a mere human, a miko to be exact, and she was utterly enticing. Her powers hummed beneath her skin and yet she didn't have the urge to use them.

'She just must not have that much power.'

"Sesshomaru, my good friend," A drunken Miroku slurred to my left. "You know you cannot resist her. She is powerful, Beautiful, Smart, and she didn't know who you were when you first met. Admit it my friend, she drew you in with just one look."

I snorted uncharacteristically. "My friend, she is not powerful."

He laughed and leaned on my side drunkenly. "My friend, she is THE Shikon Miko. She is the most Powerful Miko alive. She hides her power with ease, so that demons will not fear her. Her own son feared her before she was able to learn how to hide her powers."

I must admit this drew me in even more. It could not be true; it must simply be his drunken stupor talking. This tempting creature could not be The Shikon Miko; The Shikon Miko belonged to the Tsumanto Line.

"Miroku, this can not be possible, she is a Higurashi, not a Tsumanto. The Higurashi clan is the protectors of nature, not the Shikon Jewel." I stated, completely oblivious to the grin on my best friends face as I watched Kagome intently.

"You my friend are infatuated with her." He slurred, spilling his drink a bit. "Admit it."

"She is interesting to say the least."

"Hmm."

"She-" But I was cut off by the voice of the DJ over the speakers.

"Alright, alright people!" His deep voice boomed cheerily. "It's time to slow down just for a bit. So guys," Some men hollered and hooted.

"Grab a pretty lady and sweep her off her feet!"

A soft tune cam through the speakers, bringing a sense of calm and content to the aura of the club. I wanted to just stay there and listen to the calming music, but of course it was not going to happen. A tap on my shoulder brought me out of my concentration, effectively dampening my mood, just a little bit.

I looked to my right and found a dazzling pair of azure gems staring up at me sheepishly. A strand of ebony hair being twisted around a manicured finger. White teeth nibbling on a rosy glossed lip.

"Hi." She smiled at me.

I suddenly found myself speechless and out of breath just by staring into those eyes. Those same eyes sparkled like diamonds and captured my attention with just one look.

"Kagome." I smiled.

She blushed a little and chewed on her lip again. "Would... would you like to- to dance?"

I smirked and looked over to the DJ stand and around the room for a quick second. Looking back at her my smirk softened to a smile. I held out my right hand and she looked at it for a second, like she hadn't seen one before. Kagome's eyes lit up as she put her hand in mine, an internal shock running up my spine as our skin brushed.

Leading her out to the dance floor slowly, I gripped her hand carefully. This is when my beast decided to make an appearance.

'She is perfect for us.' It purred. 'She is perfection!'

I could not help but to agree with his reasoning, but I hardly knew the girl. We finally reached the dance floor full of swaying bodies. Her arms looped around my neck, her fingers playing with my loose hair that swung with the movements of our bodies. My own arms wrapped themselves around her slim waistline, effectively pulling her close to my own body. A smile quirked at the corners of her luscious lips when her body was pressed firmly to mine, making an almost invisible blush ghost over her porcelain skin.
